Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the proportion of all American adults who blame Barack Obama a great deal or a moderate amount for U.S. economic problems is (0.4894, 0.5706)..

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

For this problem, we have that:

n = 1004, \pi = 0.53

99% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.01, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995, so Z = 2.575.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.53 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.53*0.47}{1004}} = 0.4894

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.53 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.53*0.47}{1004}} = 0.5706

The 99% confidence interval for the proportion of all American adults who blame Barack Obama a great deal or a moderate amount for U.S. economic problems is (0.4894, 0.5706)..

What should be done so that the expression will have a value of 10? 12 - 2 + 22 ÷ 8 Add parentheses around 2 + 2. Add parenthese
mariarad [96]

12-2+22/8 (=12.75 so the option of doing nothing isn't right)

12-(2+2)2/8 (=11 so that option is gone)

(12-2)+22/8 (=12.75 so that option is gone as well)

12-2+(22/8) (=12.75 So that's gone as well)
